“Heroes,” Amy muttered.  “Right.”

Called it! …kinda.

Are you a candidate?”

She fidgeted again.  “Bonesaw nominated me.”

“Do you know why?”

Bitterly, she said, “Why do you think?  She thought I’d be a good fit.  And because my powers complement hers.”

I wonder if someone

in-universe is going to put the pieces together re: each Slaughterhouse member picking someone who had something notably in common with themselves.

A good fit?  “Just based on my interactions with you, I wouldn’t have thought.”

I mean, she does have a spiteful streak, or used to at least. But not so much that it makes her fit into the Slaughterhouse Nine.

Maybe this is how Taylor learns about Amy’s relation to Marquis, which is the main thing that could cause Amy to wonder whether she would fit in.

“No?” she asked, sarcasm in her tone, “Why wouldn’t you have thought?  You heard what Tattletale said.  I’m the daughter of a villain.

Oh yeah, I suppose she did hear that much before.

I haven’t been nice, I haven’t been merciful, or forgiving, or considerate.  Instead of giving you a second chance, I was spiteful, I toyed with your feelings, and things spiraled out of control.  You know how much trouble that caused for my family?

Wait, “toyed with your feelings”? Is she talking about the hospital encounter, or… is she not actually talking to Taylor anymore?

The director of the PRT and Legend and Miss Militia were all at my house, lecturing all of us about how serious these events were and how sensitive relations between the various factions were.”

Okay, yeah, sounds like the hospital encounter. I should probably reread that sometime soon.
